Book Review ~ Feelings Buried Alive Never Die

Or not.

I couldn't read it. I mean, I tried, and got through the first five chapters or so but then . . . I just couldn't keep going with it.

So, the book was not helpful to me. But maybe Kristi could do a review of it? She's read it tons, lol.

Still struggling with the basic realities of me, but I'm hanging in there. No new feelings, I don't think. No new problems or issues with me that I've identified. Just . . . hanging in there. 

I wonder how Kristi's doing and how any of you are doing. I need to know I'm not alone in not being able to just snap my fingers and be new and different. Every morning when I wake up, I'm still just  . . . me. 

Not that that's a bad thing, I just lost the user manual on me too long ago to know how to make me run at the optimal level. One of these days I'll figure it out. 

Uh Oh ... My Good Intentions are Failing ...

Another bad water day. I don't know about the food. Not too bad, I guess. I think I'm going to check out some books, like the one Jeri recommended, "Feelings Buried Alive Never Die" by Karol Truman. 

Jeri wrote in the comment trail: 

"It has a "script" in it that you use to "process negative emotions." While I am not 100% sold on everything in the book, I have found the script somewhat helpful. I'd be REALLY interested to see if "scripting" the emotions curbed the need to "eat" them."

My local library has it checked out at the moment, so I put it on hold. I think it's time to get some more input or ideas as to what's going on in my messed up brain.

So, I only got two glasses of water in today. There's no excuse for that - tomorrow I WILL do better.

No real food feelings today - I was busy enough that I didn't really get any time to hang out with food at all, I just ate what and when everyone else was eating.
